RMLRA 2016 Awards Banquet Highlights

The Rocky Mountain Legends Racing Association officially ended the 2015 racing season Saturday evening with the Awards Banquet at Unser Racing. The championship award going to Scotty Scott as he won the points championship, and took home the big tall trophy that went with all the honors. Scotty had many members of his family there and said how much it meant to him. His comment on Legend racing was that it is a family sport and gave credit to his dad who has helped since he started racing Legends. Members of his pit crew also did a great job on the race car.
